Etching with embossing // Circus Suite, No. 18 by Karel Appel is a vibrant limited edition etching with embossing, created in 1978 as part of an edition of 130. This work captures Appel’s playful and expressive style, with bold, childlike figures set against a dark background. The bright, contrasting colors of lime green, neon pink, electric blue, and vibrant orange bring an exuberant energy to the scene. The figures, seemingly inspired by circus characters, have exaggerated and abstract features, adding a whimsical and dynamic feel. Appel's signature impasto style enhances the texture, making the composition feel lively and tactile, reflecting his spirited approach to form and color.

What is Art Brut?
Art Brut, a French term meaning Raw Art, was coined by Jean Dubuffet to describe art created outside the conventional fine arts tradition. Dubuffet used the term to refer to works made by self-taught artists, including the mentally ill, prisoners, and others on the margins of society. He also called it Outsider Art. This art is characterized by its raw, unrefined nature, often created without concern for traditional presentation or imitation.
